2007 Season Statistics

Another great article...looks like other FOs have it a lot worse..I think understanding what other clubs face and how they handle situations is interesting and useful in looking at how the FO here does. Of course they make mistakes as all do, but in comparing with others, one can see they are closer to being correct than others.
Took a quick look at Miguels's SCP, seems as though we will be about 20 million under... can pick up a couple of new players with that, as well as sign Graham and Samuels.

I see the number being closer to $30 million (116-77). It should be a very interesting offseason, the Pats really need to get younger at LB and add depth to the secondary, Hard to imagine they will spend premium money on more than one position.

Actually, it might be a tough year for the Patriots to sign FAs - again. See clip below from Miguel's great URL reference.
Article also says NFL has set 2007 cap at 109M and 2008 at 116M.
"The Dolphins will have more cap room at the start of free agency March 2 than at any other time in their history since the cap was instituted. The current projection is $17.4 million for next year, with the Dolphins already having an adjusted team salary of $91.6 million.
The problem is, the Dolphins will be in a market in which 16 teams will be more than $20 million under the cap, with at least seven of those -- Arizona, San Francisco, Tennessee, Minnesota, Buffalo, St. Louis and Green Bay -- $30 million or more under the $109 million cap."
If FA players want to spend their brief careers with those LOSER teams, let them.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

that allows you to do something early.''
Good insight. Never thought of that.
Come here to learn ... as Miguel The Brit might say.
